The latest New Balance collaboration is done in partnership with Colorado-based [Topo Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/topo-designs-rover-trail-pack) who has experience in the field of accessories and footwear. The capsule presents a strong, urban-forward aesthetic that is adorned and accented by contemporary sensibilities, as well as beige and red colorways.

Hypebeast calls specific attention to the All Coasts 574 — a fresh take on the [New Balance 574](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/new-balance-x-mita-sneakers-mt580), complete with a custom grid-print sockliner, rope laces, and a creamy suede upper that is accented by hits of red and black.

Other products in the [Topo Designs x New Balance collaboration](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sezane-x-new-balance) include the Rover Backpack and the more versatile Quick Pack, as well as a 100% cotton long-sleeve tee.

The collection will be made available starting October 11th.
